A while back we put a set of JD Performance Standatd Shock A-Arms to the test on a project Honda 400EX, now 400X. Today, many trail systems are cutting their ATV and UTV trails between 50 and 60 inches Motocross racers, sand dune riders, and now a growing number of trail riders can benefit from the improved handling and control of riding an ATV closer to 50-inches wide.
JD Performance builds a good product at a very reasonable price. We’ve been reluctant to use many lower priced a-arms for fear of sacrificing quality construction combined with the fact that our test riders like to push the limits of man and machine.
Having inspected, installed, and tested JD Performance arms, we wouldn’t hesitate to use or recommend them.
Manufacturer: JD Performance
Product: Standard Shock +3 A-arms

So I got a 2007 Honda trx400ex and I was just curious on what should I do to make it the ultimate trail machine. I ride in the woods open roads/SxS trails and even the dunes. I have an aftermarket slip on and nerf bars too.

@BeastlyWarrior228 9 лет назад

Are you going to upload the whole 400ex build? This quad just turned up again in Indiana.

@ATVonDemand 9 лет назад

Really? I wasn't planning on it in the near future, but there is no reason we cant. If you have any questions about the build, please feel free to ask. We will try and get the build back up in the next week or so.

Hey so what’s the difference between 2+1 beside the wider part do the help the quad not flip over what do the arms do o guess is what I’m asking

@ATVonDemand 4 года назад

With A-Arms listed as +2+1, --2+1, etc. the first number is added or subtracted width. Some riders use narrower A-Arms for XC racing. The second number indicates whether the front wheels have been moved forward or not. Moving the front wheels forward increases the wheelbase, which improves high-speed straight line stability while slightly improving rear wheel traction. Extending the swingarm to improve high speed stability will reduce rear wheel traction, something that may not be beneficial for XC or MX Racing. Drag racers and duners often use long seingarms to help keep more weight on the front end to reduce unwanted wheelies. Moving the front wheels forward wont have the same affect of holding the front end down like an extended swingarm. Your model of ATV, type of riding you do and even your height will dictate your ideal setup. Feel free to follow up if this doesn't answer your question.

I have a Big problem. Right now my Quad fits on our trailer. But i cant get wider a arms because it Will be too wide.

@scotturban54 4 года назад

Any new builds in the future

@Tom1795xx 8 лет назад

Do you think you could try a weird build? Maybe use a snowmobile engine and make something ridiculous?

@ronaldtartaglia4459 8 лет назад

you are so lucky you have legal places to ride. I am selling my 400ex because there is no legal places to ride in Massachusetts.

@ATVonDemand 8 лет назад

+Ronald Tartaglia We typically travel at least an hour to test.

@ronaldtartaglia4459 8 лет назад

+ATVonDemand I would have to travel out of state, maybe 5 hours north. and register in that state. Massachusetts is communist.

@ATVonDemand 9 лет назад

Where can i buy jd arms from? Will they fit a 2008 honda trx400ex and bolt right in or do i have to modify the frame

@ATVonDemand 7 лет назад

You can buy these from JD Performance at jdperformance.net. They will fit your 2008 and there is no need to modify your frame.

@gala83filmstaylorg7 7 лет назад

What one do you like best wood mx or desert

@ATVonDemand 7 лет назад

Our's did not have adjustable caster so they came in the MX setting. Which do you prefer?

@timhutchinson953 7 лет назад

I bought a set of jd a arms a couple months ago. Upon installation i realized my stock mounting bolts wouldn't fit through the sleeves in the bushings. called jd performance, dave told me what size the stock bolts should be and the inside measurements of his sleeves. took them to work to measure them, my bolts were exactly what he said they should be. the sleeves were .006 of an inch smaller than he said they were, .003" smaller than the bolts. sent him pics of the measurements, he said he'd send me new sleeves. that was three weeks ago and still no sleeves. wish i would have gotten lonestar a arms instead. very disappointed

@ATVonDemand 7 лет назад

I'm sorry to hear your having this problem. We didn't have this issue when we installed them on our machine a few years back. Have you tried reaching out to JD since he said he would send you new bolts and sleeves? Having spent 10 years as a consumer and another 13 working publications I can tell you that these are small companies. They sometimes get behind, and things sometimes slip through the cracks, even at Lone Star, No excuses though. We'll see if we can help you out.

@daveherron1129 7 лет назад

Hi Tim, I am sorry you feel that way. When you first contacted us on April 21st, I called and spoke with you after you emailed pictures. We agreed the sleeves were the issue and I had Debbie send them out the very next day. Unfortunately she sent them regular mail without tracking. You did not contact me again until yesterday May 11th to tell me you had not received them. Upon hearing this we immediately packaged up another set (too late to send out yesterday) and provided you a tracking number. I hope that once you receive the new sleeves you will be happier in your purchase. In twenty years of this business, we have never had this issue. Thank you for trying to let us resolve it. Dave

@timhutchinson953 7 лет назад

i never received a call from you after i sent the pictures. just an email from Debbie saying you would send new ones. but i hope once i get the new sleeves i am as pleased with the a arms as I'd hoped when i ordered them

@daveherron1129 7 лет назад

Tim I spoke with you by phone about the situation. Perhaps it was before the pictures but I did speak with you regarding this situation.
